Here’s the relish!
Tasty, but apparently I don’t have the knives and knife skills for “finely chopped lemon segments”.

I also don’t have those skills.
I like my relish rustic, anyways. ![]()
Lovely! Lemon posset is such a nice, light dessert. And what a gift of those Meyer lemons! They’re bigger than I usually see in stores.
I haven’t been able to find blood oranges Boston area this winter. Has anyone seen them in other regions? I wonder why…I haven’t tried Formaggio Kitchen yet since I haven’t been in the mood for luxury produce prices, but might soon, just to see if they have them and inquire where they get them.
I wasn’t on the lookout when I was there this past Saturday, but Wegmans is showing 2 lbs. bagged blood oranges on their website for $3.99/bag. But again - not sure if they’ve actually got some.
I have bought some American-grown blood oranges here in Ontario.
What I gave not seen in Ontario this year are Sumo Tangerines / Dekopon and Minneola Tangelos.
Please eat the sumos as is ![]()
Cara caras are great in my favorite shaved fennel and citrus salad.
Pomelo is lovely in a Thai-style salad.
I’d make curd or jam from the Meyers (a la @Nannybakes ), or preserve them (in slices) to puree for savory uses later.
Some places apparently have started selling them as “raspberry” oranges, so as not to offend very, very sensitive shoppers ![]()
Remember when people tried to rename the astrological sign Cancer? To “Moon Child.” It did not take. I can’t imagine why.
I do not. Was this in the 60s? Bc it sounds it. And apparently all those signs are wrong now. Not that they ever mattered ![]()
70s. Maybe 60s also, but I would not have been aware of it.
Thanks, I’ll check Wegmans!
By the way , I have noticed lower quality and lower availability in produce generally at Whole Foods Boston area last couple of weeks. The Sumo oranges I saw looked almost rotting and very green. And they were on sale…I didn’t buy.
I’m going to make some panna cotta next. I bought way to much heavy cream but am pretty discerning when it comes to using eggs these days, partly because husband doesn’t like “eggy” things
, and partly because I can use them in “healthier” ways.
I make a lot of “jamalade” with citrus, and sometimes peppers, and hope to try @Nannybakes /food in jars jam recipe! Thanks!
ETA I don’t usually prefer using much peel in my jam, hence the “jamalade” versions, but I’m thinking about it.
Closest one to me is in Andover - one town over from my workplace. But I haven’t been in several years - MB and Wegmans keeps me supermarket-happy. ![]()
